Electrical radiant heat in the ceiling
I took down a wall between two small bedrooms to create one large bedroom. Both bedrooms have electric radiant heat in the ceiling thus I had 2 thermostats 1 controlling each side. Does anyone know if I can change out the old ones with a new one that would control both sections of the ceiling?

I would doubt that you could combine the two systems easily. Do you have access above the ceiling?

Both thermostats are fed from a single piece of Romax (one pigtailed to the other) from the panel and attached to two pinned 20 amp breakers. Each thermostat is rated at 22 amps.

Good detective work 
Since both heat panels are currently running on a single two pole 20A breaker then you can use one thermostat to control both. Using one of those 22A thermostats would be fine.
